The Official "President Obama is a Corporatist War Monger" Thread

I fully agree. I was just stating that I don't 100% agree with the man. But I do however realize he would not force his views on a federal level.

thats what I like about the man, he actually comprehends that we are all individuals with individual views, and while he may not agree with your views or mine he doesnt project his own views or forces them onto anyone

i hate politics too, but love goofing on hypocrites.
 
it'll be fun when the next R becomes president and all the Obama supporters will be against the same exact things that they're supporting now.
 
could you imagine if Bush assassinated a 16 year old American citizen overseas?

 

 
yeah, they'd be crying for impeachment in a second... and rightfully so.

The Libyan War and Obama’s ‘Worst Mistake’
President Obama identifies what he thinks was his biggest mistake as president:

President Barack Obama said the worst mistake of his presidency was a lack of planning for the aftermath of the 2011 toppling of Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi.

“Probably failing to plan for the day after what I think was the right thing to do in intervening in Libya,” he said in a Fox News interview aired Sunday.

I don’t think this was Obama’s biggest mistake, but it is revealing that he remains convinced that this lack of post-Gaddafi planning is worse than the far greater error of intervening in Libya in the first place. As we saw last week, this has become the self-serving rallying cry of Libyan war supporters. The only error interventionists are capable of recognizing is that of doing “too little.” They can’t admit that the intervention itself is a mistake without fully acknowledging their bad judgment in supporting it.

It is important to remember that the failure to plan for the aftermath of regime change in Libya was central to the administration’s case for intervention in the spring of 2011. The U.S. and its allies weren’t going to plan for post-Gaddafi Libya because they insisted that the war would be nothing like Iraq, and therefore there would be no attempt to police or stabilize Libya for years after the initial campaign was over. More to the point, the official U.S./NATO line was that the intervention wasn’t aimed at regime change. Why plan for post-Gaddafi Libya when we were supposedly not trying to overthrow the regime? Libyan war supporters also said that Libya wouldn’t need the U.S. and its allies to assume such a role, and no one was going to volunteer for that role in any case.

Obama knew at the time that there was absolutely no political support in the U.S. or anywhere else for a prolonged mission in Libya. Promising not to start an open-ended mission in Libya is what made the war politically viable here at home. The public would tolerate bombing for eight months and then writing off the country, but there wouldn’t be similar patience for a new occupation in yet another Muslim country with the costs and casualties that would likely entail.

It was not an oversight by the intervening governments when they left Libya to its own devices. That was part of the plan, such as it was, from the very beginning. So it is hard to take Obama seriously when he faults himself for not committing the U.S. to a larger, costlier role in Libya when he and the other allied leaders deliberately decided against doing that. They made that decision because they wanted a low-risk intervention on the cheap, and they certainly weren’t prepared to make a long-term commitment to police and rebuild Libya. But they were willing to help throw the country into chaos and to destabilize the surrounding region and declare victory when the regime change they supposedly weren’t seeking had been achieved.

Pentagon: US Airstrikes Kill 12 Al-Shabaab in Somalia

Pentagon officials today claimed “about a dozen” suspected members of al-Shabaab were killed in US airstrikes against an as-yet-undisclosed target in southern Somalia over the course of Monday and Tuesday.

​

Pentagon spokesman Capt. Jeff Davis said the targeted militants “posed an imminent threat” to US ground troops positioned in the area around the Somali city of Kismayo “assisting” the Somali government.

The Pentagon has recently used claims of an “imminent threat” as a justification for several attacks in Somalia, since if true it would give them a legal justification to attack factions that the US isn’t actually at war with.

In the case of al-Shabaab, US officials have also attempted to portray them as “tied to al-Qaeda” or at times “tied to ISIS.” Neither claim is backed by much, and al-Shabaab is widely seen as a relatively autonomous faction, whose interests are restricted to resisting foreign intervention in Somalia.



TL/DR: Obama administration mass murders people it suspects aren't happy with US troops being in their country. Again.

 

People will never ultimately be happy, no matter which society or political system they have.

 

So why not give peaceful anarchy a try?

 

Cause everyone just ends up acting like a bunch of dicks
